The Castle In The Air

The river opened her mouth and spat into a vast sea Larger and bluer than a cloudless sky Muscular, prodigious, immortal But our vessel was invulnerable It was well built, the boat rocked me into sleep And I floated through a deep dream Smooth sailing through the castle in the air One-eyed people living peaceful With monopods and astomi Without malice or guile Without covetousness Oh, ah And there's men whose heads do Grow beneath their shoulders Maybe we'll find the world's center Where equinox does not shatter Spread our teaching Alleviate their damnation Oh, ah Oh, ah Without us they will go to hell We are casting spells Could it be Faithful? Could it seem More real? As I opened my eyes The dream decolorized Until it was un-skewered And the harsh reality hit me like salty water --- The Castle in the Air - King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard
